The place was very busy, but still able to be seated quickly. Server was very attentive and timely. Another good sign. We ordered drinks which were promptly delivered in less than 5 minutes and a fairly busy night. I ordered the Scallops with Fettuccine Fra Diavolo. She ordered spaghetti with clams on the half shell. Both were absolutely amazing. I am a huge fan of FraDiavolo sauce and this was, by far, the BEST I have ever landed my taste buds on. She was extremely satisfied with her dish as well. For an authentic fine dining experience where YOU feel important rather than a burden, this is your place. Smiling faces, great server staff, food done perfectly and good portions! Best Fine Dining Italian restaurant in the "Coal Region" and I am fairly hard to impress.

Each coin giving one hour means 50 cents should be plenty. Passing by the outside seating made me wish I wasn't dining alone. I was seated promptly and narrowed my choices down to three sandwiches. The parmesan bruschetta Panini, the Milltown Panther, or the Marilyn Monroe. I ended up ordering the former and kept the original side of chips. If I was super hungry I would have ordered Mac & cheese for a side. The panini was super crunchy and toasted to perfection. The chicken was sliced appropriately sized and cooked well. The toppings were justice but not to the point it would ruin the crispy bread. I would visit again and get the one of the same three items I narrowed it down to this first time.

I really wanted to like this restaurant. Their weekend breakfast buffet is small but has a nice…read morevariety of homemade food and is served until noon. We went a few Sundays in the late spring and had a good experience. When Knoebel's opened, the experience went downhill. We drew the line when we went in on a Sunday where large groups were present, and they apparently had no clue on buffet etiquette, or just didn't care. Cleanliness and food safety are huge to me after I got horrible food poisoning at another buffet in the area and spent 4 days in the ICU with it. While the buffet area itself was clean and the food was to temperature, there were many patrons taking dirty plates back up. We notified our server who just looked at us and kind-of shrugged and walked away. My husband approached one of them and said, "Please don't keep taking dirty plates back up to the buffet.". One of them chastised him and told him he was "nuts" and that he was lying that it's not OK to do that. Plates are not at the buffet - the server brings them, and will bring two sets at the beginning, and then will replenish when needed. When we left, we informed another server that it was gross to do that and they're opening themselves up for issues if the health department stopped by, she asked why we didn't say anything. We said that we did but the server didn't seem to care. She yelled "I care!" from behind a door, but that was enough for us to opt to not return until Knoebel's was closed for the year. We suggested that they consider keeping the plates at the buffet area to discourage that. We decided to try again recently. Not only was there a large group there taking their dirty plates back up, but they were also taking dirty utensils up and using them. I was 3/4 through my plate when I saw that and refused to eat any more. My husband again said something to them, and they just pretended as if he didn't hear. We again said something to the server and suggested that they need to put signs up saying to not take dirty plates back up, or again to put plates at the buffet, but I'm fairly confident nothing will be done. There are other reviews out there that bring up questions of cleanliness, which is concerning. Unsure whether we'll try to return or not. At 10 am, much of the hot side of the buffet was empty, and not restocked while we were there, which is another strike.
